DIAGNOSA KEBUNTINGAN

PADA TERNAK SAPI

• Pentingnya Diagnosis Kebuntingan
Mengetahui hewan bunting selain memiliki nilai ekonomi yg
berharga juga merupakan tindakan penting dalam
manajemen reproduksi

DIAGNOSIS AWAL KEBUNTINGAN :

• Identifikasi awal hewan tidak bunting sesudah KA / IB shg
kehilangan waktu produksi akibat infertilitas dikurangi
melalui perlakuan yg sesuai/Pengapkiran
• Sertifikasi hewan yg dijual atau tujuan asuransi
• Mengurangi pemborosan dlm program perkawinan yg
menggunakan teknik hormonal yg mahal
• Membantu manajemen ekonomi produksi ternak.
1. Tidak Kembali Birahi (Non Return To Estrus)
Selama kebuntingan, konseptus menghambat
regresi korpus luteum & mencegah hewan
tidak kembali birahi
Karenanya, hewan yg tdk kembali birahi
sesudah kawin - > asumsi bunting
2. Metode-Metode Klinis
Dalam Diagnosis Kebuntingan
• Tergantung pada deteksi konseptus –
fetus, selaput-2 fetus & cairan-2 fetus

Pemeriksaan melalui rektum

Kuda
Kerbau
Sapi
Ultrasonografi
• Gelombang suaraultra tdk dapat di dengar telinga & bekerja
pada frekuensi 1 - 10 megahertz ( MHz )
• 100% accurate pada 27 sd 28 hari kebuntingan
dibandingkan kebuntinggan 35/40 hari dengan palpasi
rektal.
• Pada kasus kematian embryo dini (10 sd 16% kasus pada
kebuntingan hari ke 28 dan 56) sering dijumpai corpus
luteum sehingga menunda birahi (hormon luteolytic
diperlukan untuk mengeluarkan embryo yang mati sehingga
birahi akan terjadi 2 sd 7 hari kemudian).
Hormon
•Metode RIA & ELISA yg peka untuk
mengukur kadar hormon kebuntingan
di dalam cairan-2 tubuh
•Kebuntingan didiagnosis pada ternak
piara pada tahap paling awal sekali
memakai P4 (progesteron) plasma / air
susu dibandingkan palapsi rektum
Progesteron
• Pengukuran P4 - metode deteksi paling luas
• Non-spesifik,dapat dipakai karena CL tidak beregresi selama
kebuntingan awal pada semua ternak piara
• Darah / susu ditampung sesudah IB / KA - hari ke-22 s/d. ke-24
(sapi & kerbau), hari ke-16 s/d. ke-18 (domba) ke-18 s/d. ke-21
(kambing), ke-16 s/d. ke-22 (kuda)
hari ke-21 (babi)
• P4 rendah - > tidak bunting, P4 tinggi - > bunting
• Tidak sesuai utk kuda - fase diestrus panjang (P4 tinggi) positif
palsu
• Sampel susu lebih disenangi drpd. darah karena P4 dalam susu >
dalam darah
• Sampel ditampung saat pemerahan
Different Methods of Pregnancy Diagnosis in Goats
1. Non-return to estrus
2. Progesterone Assay
Blood
Ewes = 15 to 17 days
Does = 18 to 22 days
Plasma P4 > 1.0 ng/ml
Accuracy : 75 - 86% pregnant; 90 - 100% non-pregnant

Milk
RIA milk P4 above 10 ng/ml = 86% pregnant
< 10 ng/ml = 100% non-pregnant
Plasma concentrations of progesterone tend to be more predictable of the true
endocrine status.

3. Radiography
: 65 - 70 days
4. Rectal - Abdominal Palpation
Hulet rod = 1.5 × 50 cm plastic rod

5. Abdominal Palpation: Third Trimester

The gravid uterus or fetus can sometimes be palpated through the relaxed
abdominal wall of the standing doe or ewe by placing a hand on either side of the
abdomen and squeezing or lifting upward.

6. Estrone Sulphate Test

: Estrone sulphate is produced by the feto-placental unit and can be Measured.
This test is close to 100% accurate for the detection of pregnancy and non-
pregnancy.
Milk
= 82% accurate for pregnant
= 83% accurate for non-pregnant
DIAGNOSA KEBUNTINGAN
PADA TERNAK KAMBING
DETEKSI KEBUNTINGAN DAN PEMELIHARAAN
INDUK KAMBING BUNTING
Part 1. Checking for signs of pregnancy
1. Be aware of the
gestation period for a doe.
Generally, five months is the
length for a goat pregnancy.
Figure around 145 to 155
days as normal for the
gestation period.
2. Look at the doe's size. Realize that this
eyeballing test doesn't work with all goats
and in fact, some does can look wide and
therefore pregnant, and not actually be
pregnant.However, in some cases, the size
of the doe will indicate that pregnancy is
well underway and, along with other
pregnancy signs, can confirm pregnancy.
Note that the doe's abdomen usually won't
look larger until around three months of
gestation.
3. Do a "pooch test". This refers to checking the
area of the doe's vulva and anus to see a shape
change. Lift up the tail to check. It does help if
you've checked either pre-pregnancy or in the
first month, so that you know what looks
"normal" and have a comparison image (yes, do
take a smartphone picture to help you). About
two to three months after conception, check this
area again. If the doe is pregnant, the anus will
drop away from the tail area and the vulva will
appear longer, like a tear drop. However, as with
looking at the goat's belly size, this is subjective
and based on good observation skills.
4.See the vet or rather, have the
livestock vet drop by the farm. The vet
can do a blood test to check. However,
goats can show a false positive and this
may be accompanied by an increased
belly. If you want absolute certainty, ask
the vet for an ultrasound. Since this is
costly, not many breeders indulge in
this unless absolutely necessary.
Part 2. Close to kidding time

1. Check for mood swings. The

doe may act up and seem grumpy
or cranky when closer to the due
date for kidding.
2. Check for stringy mucus. Some
does produce this, some don't. If you
see it coming out of the back of the
doe, this suggest that labor may
occur any time within a few hours to
a few days.
3. Check the udder. This tends to
increase in size close to kidding
time. It may only do this several
hours before kidding, depending on
the goat as an individual and its
breed. The udder may seem very
solid and shiny when the kids are
close to arrival.
4. Take note of bleating and
searching. This is an innate action of
looking for the kid or kids, even
though they're yet to be born. If the
doe is wandering around bleating
either softly or loudly and looks as if
she's looking for something, it's time
to get her ready for the birthing.
Note that twin kids are normal, as
opposed to a single kid
Part 3. Caring for a pregnant doe

1. Ensure that the pregnant doe

is well cared for. A pregnant doe
must not be stressed; if she
experiences any stress, she may
abort the kids.
2. Feed the goat appropriately. First three
months: Maintenance rations are fine.
•Near full term: Supply half as much feed
again.
•Give vet approved concentrates for extra
energy, especially if the doe needs to stay
warm.
3. Ensure that the doe has
adequate access to shelter
throughout the pregnancy.
This is especially important if
it's winter.
4. Rid the doe of any
internal parasites. Use
an appropriate worming
paste or formula your
vet has recommended to
you.
